Piper's Proposal
Piper has ten suitors vying for her hand…or rather, her inheritance. Posies, invitations, and yes, proposals arrive on her doorstep daily, but none of the men can sweep her heart into the grand, passionate love she requires.
Enter Jonah, Earl of Stockbury, infamous for his enormous gambling losses but possessed of an even bigger heart. He's bound by honor not to fall in love with his best friend's sister, a vow he secretly broke years ago. Yet when he expresses his feelings to Piper she laughs him off believing his words to be just another teasing prank.
Can he win Piper's heart and her brother's approval before another man wins her hand?
